    @CoTacoTRD , what was the name of the LED rock light pods company. I forgot already.

    @everyone

    If you are curious, I will be trying these ARB knock off lights on the Tacoma. If they work good, possibly the 4runner.

    http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...rd_t=36701&pf_rd_p=2079475242&pf_rd_i=desktop

    They claim USA parts, some parts claim 2 lights included, others 1. Claim some sort of 2 year warranty, dust and water proof. This could be a shit show of money lost, who knows.

    I hope it comes with those, it doesn't mention it. Could just be hopes and dreams.

    I think @CoTacoTRD has rock lights from Lux lighting: http://luxlightingsystems.com

    I'm curious to hear your thoughts about the ARB knockoffs regarding how far out they'll illuminate and how controlled the beam pattern is. @Iggy. had some similar lights for sale (basically the ARB on steroids) a while back.

    I have no clue of the brand. I've own both sets forever, I think I got them in 98 and 2000. On set was for 31" and 32" tires and the other set I had to shrink for my 255s cause it was meant for 35" tires.

    Hmm. I was looking at these and they don't look to bad and I think look pretty aggressive as far as I have seen http://www.tirechainsupply.com/product219.html what do you guys think?

    I assume you have the bungy ones then? I assume the cams would slip often

    I try and get my chains tight enough I don't have to use the rubber tensioner, branches and rocks try to peel them off.

    edit: I do carry them though, if I'm not having luck getting them tight

    Yeap these.
    Yeah we saw the Chinese ones and then found these US made ones when we were looking the other night. It will be interesting to see them in person when they arrive.
